A Big Shot’s Woman Is Wild and Fierce Chapter 654 – Old Madam Mu’s Special Preference for Wen Xin

Chapter 654: Chapter 653 Old Madam Mu’s Special Preference for Wen Xin

As she ran, she took out a bottle from the few remaining ones in her backpack, poured out a pill, and approached Old Madam Mu.

“Grandmother, please take the medicine.”

Hearing the cool, familiar voice, Old Madam Mu slowly opened her eyes and saw Wen Xin crouching in front of her, managing a difficult smile.

“Little Xin Xin has returned.”

“Grandmother, if you’re feeling unwell, take the medicine first. Auntie Fu, please bring a glass of warm water.” Wen Xin’s voice was cold as she spoke, and everyone in the hall seemed to notice something was wrong with the Old Madam, gathering around her.

“Don’t crowd around, keep the air flowing.” Wen Xin placed the pill into the Old Madam’s mouth and swept a glance at the people who wanted to come closer to see what was happening, her voice still cool.

Her slender fingers gently rested on Old Madam Mu’s wrist, and her eyebrows unconsciously knitted together. From the pulse, it looked like Old Madam Mu had not had easy days during the two days they were away from home.

Outside, Mu Chengxu and Mu Chengxi, seeing Old Madam Mu was not in good condition, quickly pushed their way into the hall.

Seeing Mu Chengxi enter, the wife of Second Master Mu also rushed over, intending to pull on Mu Chengxi, but was quickly intercepted by Mu Chengxu.

“Second Lady, you’re going too far with your hands-on approach!”

“I’m going too far? The one who’s excessive is Mu Chengxi. What was the point of causing unprovoked trouble with the Jiang family? Now your Second Uncle is also implicated in the Jiang family’s issue.”

“Mu Chengxi, it’s one thing for you to control the Mu family’s power, but if we can’t make a living under the Mu family and want to do something else, you’ve also messed that up. And now, to top it all off, you’ve even sent your Second Uncle to jail. What exactly is your intention? Do you want to drive us to death to be satisfied?”

The wife of Second Elder Mu, having heard from somewhere that this event was related to Mu Chengxi, had started to weep and complain within the old mansion since yesterday. Her crying had caused Old Madam Mu much distress and annoyance—if not for Wen Xin’s timely discovery, Old Madam Mu could have had an incident at any moment.

“Yes, Chengxi, putting aside the issue with your Second Uncle for a moment, although our relationship with the Jiang family isn’t very close, the Jiang family has been trying to win your favor lately, even considering marrying Old Master Jiang’s most cherished granddaughter to you.”

“You should realize that the Jiang family is no ordinary family. Marrying Miss Jiang is much better than ending up with some unknown country girl. You’d better pull back soon; otherwise, once the Jiang family gets their act together, they will be against you!”

Mu Jinrou looked at Mu Chengxi with an expression of concern, her voice soft, trying to persuade him.

After Mu Jinrou finished speaking, the expression on Mu Chengxi’s face immediately darkened, and he looked at her with gloomy eyes.

“Has Aunt forgotten what Grandmother told her when she was sick? Grandmother said there’s no need to come to the old mansion in the future since you’re married off after all!”

“Furthermore, I’m still keeping the evidence of Aunt poisoning Grandmother. If Aunt feels she has had enough of her good days, then I can arrange for her to spend a few days in jail. Grandmother might consider your identity as her daughter and not pursue this matter.”

“But as the head of the Mu family, I simply couldn’t stand by and watch the Old Madam Mu be plotted against!”

“You… Mu Chengxi, how can you be so ungrateful? I just don’t understand what you see in that country bumpkin. If it’s her beauty you like, then keep her as a hidden mistress. A lover is enough; there’s no need to…”

Mu Jinrou had not expected that her well-intentioned advice would be met with such an attitude from Mu Chengxi. He even brought up her past attempt to poison the Old Madam, which was incredibly annoying.

However, as her words became more offensive, her voice suddenly stopped short. She could only open her mouth but no sound would come out.

This scene had occurred before when Wen Xin first treated the Old Madam. Everyone present remembered Wen Xin’s skill vividly and instinctively looked towards her.

Wen Xin slowly stood up after removing the silver needle from Old Madam Mu’s head, walked over to Mu Jinrou, took the silver needle from her neck, and casually threw it into the trash can nearby, speaking with an icy tone.

“Madam Mu, just because your husband keeps several mistresses, doesn’t mean Mu Chengxi should treat me as a mistress too. I have a bad temper and am not suited to be a lover, unlike you who can tolerate sharing your husband with many women.”

“Furthermore, I let go of your previous attempt to frame me because of Mu Chengxi’s sake. However, if you persist in your recklessness, don’t blame me for not being polite. It doesn’t matter even if you are Mu Chengxi’s aunt!”

At this moment, Mu Jinrou couldn’t make a sound. She could not swallow this grievance and, without thinking, lunged at Wen Xin, but Wen Xin did not move to dodge at all.

Just as Mu Jinrou was about to collide with Wen Xin, Mu Jinyan, who had been sitting in a corner quietly, rushed forward, grabbed the flailing Mu Jinrou, and forcefully threw her onto a chair nearby.

Mu Jinrou gasped in pain from the throw. She glared furiously at Mu Jinyan, opened her mouth to say something, but she could not utter a word.

“Issue an order, starting today, Mu Jinrou is not to set foot in the Mu family’s old mansion without my grandmother’s summon. Whoever lets her in, gets thrown out of the Mu family.”

Mu Jinrou had not expected Mu Chengxi to utter such words. She wanted to resist, but seeing the warning look from Mu Jingang, she wisely bowed her head.

“Alright, alright. We’re all family here, why damage a good relationship? Wen Xin, your aunt spoke hastily in a moment of anxiety and uttered some foolish words. Don’t hold it against her, please just let her speak now. It’s really unbearable not to let people talk!”

“I think there’s no need. It’s better she can’t speak, so she won’t blurt out anything unpleasant!”

Old Madam Mu looked much better after being treated by Wen Xin. She didn’t appear as uncomfortable as before, and her vitality seemed to have returned. Her previously dim eyes were now clear and bright.

“Now that everyone is here, I’ll make this clear. The matters of the Jiang family— the Mu family will not get involved. Those who claim to be implicated by the Mu family should think it over properly to see if they really are blameless.”

“Whether blameless or not, do not come here to trouble me. If Old Master Jiang can’t handle his affairs, I certainly can’t either. There’s no need to bother me any further. I am old now and can’t deal with so many issues!”

“If you need the Mu family to take charge, then build a good relationship with Little Yao! Starting today, matters regarding the Mu family will be handled by Little Yao. I am too old to manage things anymore!”
